Deep foundation machines product segment

In the deep foundation machines segment, Liebherr offers a diversified product portfolio to cover all current methods in deep foundation – from drilling to slotting. Liebherr-Werk Nenzing GmbH (Austria) is responsible for the overall operational management of all activities in this product segment.

Maximum performance – minimum operating costs

Liebherr deep foundation machines make it possible to establish sophisticated constructions efficiently – maximum performance under the toughest conditions, reliability in continuous use and minimum operating costs characterise the machines in this product segment. The machines include drilling rigs, piling and drilling rigs, fixed and swinging leaders, duty cycle crawler cranes and attachments such as slurry wall grabs or cutters.

The future is electrified

Innovations are the driving force of the company. Aware of their responsibility for the environment and society, Liebherr presented the world’s first battery-powered large rotary drilling rig in 2019, in the form of the LB 16 unplugged. This was followed in 2020 by the LR 1250.1, the world’s first battery-powered crawler crane. In doing so, Liebherr aims to achieve the best possible combination of user benefits, efficiency and environmental compatibility. Strict requirements with regard to the environmental compatibility for calls for tenders of construction projects increase the demand for such pioneering technologies. The alternative drive concept of the Unplugged series opens up new applications thanks to its ‘zero emissions’ design. The machines produce no exhaust emissions, very low noise emissions and deliver the same performance data as the conventional version. The blue colour in the design symbolises the electrical solution and gives the series a distinctive look.

The construction site of tomorrow

As a systems provider, Liebherr provides a variety of digital solutions for the extreme challenges that arise in deep foundation machines. Whether it is a ground pressure indicator, verticality assistant, the LIPOS positioning system or Kelly visualisation – all of these assistance systems ensure maximum safety and the utmost driver comfort when in use. The MyJobsite digital construction site management solution enables relevant process, machine, construction site and position data to be recorded, displayed, analysed, managed and evaluated. This means that Liebherr can optimally support their customers in the fulfilment of their requirements for the construction site of the future.
